Submissions

How to submit your artwork for consideration

Welcome to the world of art licensing and your interest in Courtney Davis, Inc. The success of our business is based on the strength of the existing artists we represent as well as new talent that we find interesting for today’s marketplace.

Strengths of Courtney Davis:

1. We pride ourselves in maintaining a relatively small base of licensed artists, which allows us the opportunity to focus on, and fully develop each artist that we represent.

2. At Courtney Davis, we work with over 300 different manufacturers in designing and developing artwork and product plans for success. Our team of account executives, along with an in-house graphic design team is poised to assist in this process.

3. The key to our success is in our relationships with our customers. Years of building successful partnerships with key manufacturers often lead to future success. These relationships don’t happen without dedication.

4. Communication is extremely important. A key to any successful partnership stems from the communication developed and maintained. We offer a streamlined approach and feel our style of conducting business on a daily basis is what puts us above the competition.

We welcome the opportunity to review your body of work. We ask that you please send us a representation of your artwork via a jpeg or PDF file or send us a link to your website. Please forward these files to info@courtneydavis.com

It is important that you show a large variety of images. PLEASE, DO NOT SEND ORIGINAL ARTWORK to our office in Franklin, Tennessee. We meet monthly as a committee to review all submissions. Once we have completed our evaluation process, we will be contacting you.

Thank you again for your interest in Courtney Davis and we look forward to hearing from you and seeing your wonderful artwork.
